APPL/ACCUM-1 Rope Accumulator Machine

FAQ's

• What material range does the APPL/ACCUM-1 rope accumulator machine handle?
  The specification table for the APPL/ACCUM-1 lists a denier range of 5,000 to 1,00,000 Denier, so the machine is rated by yarn denier rather than by finished rope diameter. A rope size or diameter range is not published for this model. Tell us the denier of the yarn running on your line and we will confirm that the APPL/ACCUM-1 suits your process.
• What is the accumulation capacity and line speed of the APPL/ACCUM-1?
  The APPL/ACCUM-1 has a yarn storage capacity of 1300 Meter Max. and runs at a line speed of 200 MPM, as listed in the specification table on this page. A separate production capacity figure in kilograms is not published for this model, because output depends on the denier and the speed of the extrusion line the accumulator is fitted to.
• Where is the APPL/ACCUM-1 rope accumulator machine used in rope manufacturing?
  The APPL/ACCUM-1 is fitted between the extrusion line and the downstream winding or twisting stage, where it stores yarn and absorbs the difference in speed between the two. Its variable speed control follows the line speed of the extruder and the dancing arm absorbs pulsation, so doffing, bobbin changes and short stops downstream do not force the extruder to stop.
• What are the main benefits of the APPL/ACCUM-1 model?
  The APPL/ACCUM-1 offers a dancing arm for absorbing pulsation and tension adjustment, variable speed control matched to the line speed of the extruder, and a warning alarm during yarn break. It uses V-Belt power transmission with a 1 H.P (0.75 KW) motor and inverter drive, and its rigid, mobile design is easy to maintain.
